RALEIGH – North Carolina State University-led researchers have developed an analytical measurement “framework” which could allow organic solar cell researchers and manufacturers to determine which materials will produce the most stable solar cells prior to manufacture.
Organic solar cells have increased in efficiency over the past decades, but researchers and manufacturers still struggle with determining which material combinations work best and why, as well as with achieving stable morphology and operation.
“There is still a lot of ‘trial and error’ guesswork involved in identifying promising materials for these solar cells,” says Harald Ade, Goodnight Innovation Distinguished Professor of Physics at NC State and co-corresponding author of the research. “However, we found that if you understand two important parameters for the materials being used, you can predict how stable the active layer morphology will be, which in turn a
What Do You Think of the Decision by Tech Companies to Block President Trump?
Does the attack on the U.S. Capitol justify the move? Or do a handful of tech giants have too much power to control who has a platform to speak?

Corbett called the honor absolutely amazing.
After the reading of the proclamation, Corbett thanked the board for the honor and urged everyone to get vaccinated against COVID-19 as soon as possible. It is absolutely amazing to be recognized by my hometown, she said.
Corbett was was born in Hurdle Mills and raised in Hillsborough. She attended Stanback Middle School and graduated from Orange High School. She went on to earn Bachelor of Science degrees in biological sciences and sociology from the University of Maryland, Baltimore County, and in 2014 received a doctorate in microbiology and immunology from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
